Cork trees are harvested approximately every ten years, but they are not cut down, and cork forests is left to nature for the most part, living on average more than 200 years.

Harvesters only remove about 5-6 feet of bark starting about one or two feet from the ground.

After it is removed, the bark is soft and very elastic. Processed cork is broken up and compressed and glued to form the cork sheets used for so many different purposes, including thermal and sound insulation , textile industry , and probably the most famous, wine industry .

Lately, cork fabric became widely popular in fashion industry, which does not come as a surprise having in mind its durability , ease of cutting and sewing , and of course beauty.
